Wow! I can't believe January is almost over. I keep asking myself where the time goes. Life seems to be moving faster these days (at least it seems that way to me). Maybe it's because we're in the count-down until high school graduation for my oldest son. Maybe it's because I'm not ready to let him go yet (Will I ever be?).

Maybe it's because I'm not fond of change. I know alot of people look forward to change, but transition comes harder for me. Especially when it comes to life as I know it now. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that it is my first-born who is about to be out of my home and away at college. He's excited about this time in his life and I try to be excited for him. But, my momma-heart is having a very difficult time.

I know that God has my son in His hands and I know that God has my son's future mapped out already. I trust God completely.  I know that my son is allowing God to direct his life right now. So.....why so down-hearted, O my soul?

No matter the changes that come my way, one thing I know for certain....My Jesus is right here with me, carrying me through this sad/joyous time. He lifts me up; He carries me in His strong arms. Praise Him for He is holy (how could I do anything else?).

Blessings!
